COLUMBUS – Ohio s most pressing need in the fight against the novel coronavirus is more vaccine doses, Gov. Mike DeWine told now-President Joe Biden.
DeWine outlined the state s most critical needs as the state responds to the COVID-19 crisis in a Monday letter, responding to a Biden administration request to detail what the federal government can do to help. The most important thing you can do is get us more vaccine, DeWine wrote. We can deal with most of the other challenges surrounding its distributions, but the need for more is an imperative.
The U.S. might have more doses of Pfizer-BioNTech s COVID-19 vaccine than it thought.
While each vial is supposed to hold five doses of the first vaccine authorized for emergency use by the Food and Drug Administration, Politico was first to report on Wednesday that pharmacists have discovered some vials may have extra doses, potentially adding to the country s supply. The amount of vaccine remaining in the multidose vial after removal of 5 doses can vary, depending on the type of needles and syringes used, a Pfizer spokesperson told USA TODAY in a statement. At this time, we cannot provide a recommendation on the use of the remaining amount of vaccine from each vial. Vaccinators need to consult their institution’s policies for the use of multidose vials.
